D-SHAPE TUNNEL CROSS-SECTION AREA CALCULATION TECHNIQUE

As presented earlier, the short-cut technique for Area calculation of tunnels cross-section, the calculation for Area of D-Shape tunnels has been specified this time.

For calculating the cross-sectional area, most of the time we depend on Auto Cad, as well as various hectic calculations.

From my past experiences and as per knowledge, the short-cut calculation has been developed, called as AREA CBS FACTOR, the calculation has been shown below……..

C/S AREA OF D-SHAPE TUNNEL =  d2 X CBS FACTOR

Where,

d = Dia. Of D-Shape tunnel

CBS FACTOR = 0.8927

From above formula, we can calculate Area instantly with simple multiplication.

For example….

For a 6mt. dia tunnel, the Area has been calculated…

Area = d² X 0.8927

   6² x 0.8927  ->   32.13 m²

The above calculation can be verified using Auto-Cad or any mathematical technique

area   32.1372 m2          perimeter   21.4248 m

C/S AREA OF HORSE SHOE SHAPE TUNNEL =  d2 X CBS FACTOR

Where,

d = Dia. Of horse shoe shape tunnel

CBS FACTOR = 0.829323611

From above formula, we can calculate Area instantly with simple multiplication.

For example….

For a 6mt. dia tunnel, the Area has been calculated…

Area = d² x 0.829323611

             6² x 0.829323611 ->   29.85 m²

The above calculation can be verified using Auto-Cad or any mathematical technique
